Robert + Olivia | Bar Harbor, Maine Elopement Photographer

What a beautiful day on the coast of Maine for Rob and Olivia’s wedding day! These intimate ceremonies have been such a refreshing thing to capture during a year that has been so tumultuous. They’ve been renting the same little cabin in Trenton for years, and decided that is where they would tie the knot! It was such a pleasure to work with these two and I hope you enjoy seeing some of what we capture!

Rob and Libby may have bitter rivals for their favorite baseball teams, but thankfully it doesn’t get in the way of their union. This isn’t the first time I’ve had couples who are separately fans of the Red Sox and Yankees!

I love how Rob was spreading rose petals for his bride before the ceremony!

The only attendant on their wedding day was Libby’s mother! Her and I were the official witnesses!

The property was so beautiful, so it wasn’t hard to find great spots for photos without going anywhere!

Libby had a little fun during her bridal portraits!

Rob and Libby had their bulldogs with them as well, though I think they were far more interested in eating me than they were in taking photos haha!

Once we finished at the cottage, it was time to head up Cadillac Mountain around sunset for some final portraits. What amazing views we had!

I had such a great time in my back and forth conversations with DC leading up to the wedding day, that I knew I’d love spending a couple of hours with these two. DC and Erin invited me to capture their intimate wedding in Acadia, which turned out to be gorgeous! The day that they had originally scheduled to tie the knot had turned out to a be a horribly rainy day, but thankfully, we were able to shift things around and move their big day to the next morning. I’m so glad that we did! In the end, they chose to be married at the Asticou Azalea Gardens in Southwest Harbor, which are absolutely stunning in June! If you’ve never been, it’s something I would highly recommend. I had a great morning with these two and am happy to share some of the images captured!

After spending some time in the gardens, we made our way to Jesup Path for a few more photos. The access to get there is found through the Wild Gardens Of Acadia, so if you find yourself confused when Google maps doesn’t seem to take you to this well known spot, that is why! The wooden walking path through the woods is a great spot.
